There are a few lesson plans for schools on the K-7 post. More will be coming soon. As far as borrowing GPS units, several suggestions come to mind:

Ask your sponsor teacher to apply for a grant on Donor's Choose.

Contact your local clubs. Many experienced cachers may have a spare unit you can borrow.

If you need one for a short period of time, contact the education department at one of the manufacturers. I know they have a loaner program for short periods of time.

I know most of my students have smart phones. There are geocaching apps for both Iphones and Droids and are fairly accurate. You can download the free version of those or pay the $10 for the full version.
